Ingredients
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
1/2 head of green cabbage, sliced into thin strips
1 small onion, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon ginger, minced
2 tablespoons miso paste
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon sake or rice vinegar
1 tablespoon mirin (optional)
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon sugar (optional)
2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
1
Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the miso paste, soy sauce, sake or rice vinegar, mirin (if using), and sugar (if using). Stir until the miso paste is fully dissolved.
2
Cook the Chicken: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken slices and stir-fry until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
3
Stir-Fry the Vegetables: In the same pan, add the sesame oil, minced garlic, and ginger. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the sliced onion and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until softened.
4
Add the Cabbage: Add the cabbage to the pan and stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until it begins to soften but still has some crunch.
5
Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the cooked chicken to the pan. Pour the miso sauce over the chicken and vegetables, and stir well to coat everything evenly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and the sauce thickens slightly.
6
Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and sprinkle with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot, with steamed rice if desired.
